Misadventures of the Stanley cup
 

The Cup has also been mistreated, misplaced, or otherwise misused on numerous occasions.

In 1905, a member of the Ottawa Senators tried to drop kick the Cup across the Rideau Canal. The attempt failed, and the Cup was not retrieved until the next day; luckily the canal was still frozen over.[28]

In 1924, members of the Montreal Canadiens, en route to celebrate their win at owner Leo Dandurand's home, left it by the road after repairing a flat tire. The Cup was recovered exactly where they left it.[28] In 1925, Lynn and Muzz Patrick, the sons of Victoria Cougars manager-coach Lester Patrick, discovered the Cup in the basement of their home, and scratched their names on it with a nail.[30] In 1940, their names were properly engraved on it as members of the champion New York Rangers. They also urinated in the Cup with teammates.[29]

In 2007, a photoshoot on the set of the NBC television series Heroes showed actors Milo Ventimiglia and Hayden Panettiere "goofing off" with the cup, including worshiping, walking with, and Hayden licking and kissing the trophy.[39]

A week after the same Detroit team won the Cup, Kris Draper's newborne daughter defecated in the Cup as she sat in it. The Cup was thoroughly cleaned and Draper reportedly drank from it that same day.[44]

These are some of the good ones hahahahha

I don't know if I believe some of these..

When Pittsburgh won the cup, one of the players brought it home to B.C. We had a a big party with the cup, and there was an NHL employee present at all time. He literally was wearing white gloves and gave us very strict instructions about the cup. "Abuse the cup, it goes back in it's case for an hour. Do it a second time and it goes away for the night".

They did let people drink from it though :D

When Vancouver wins the cup, Hendrik is going to hoist the cup, then pass it Daniel, then back to Hendrik.... :haha:

In 1987, the Edmonton Oilers' Mark Messier took it to his favourite club in his hometown of St. Albert, Alberta, and let fans drink out of it. It wound up slightly bent in various places for unknown reasons. It was repaired at a local automotive shop, and shipped back to the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Wouldnt be a mistake cause schneider will get to take it back to his hometown

LOL, straight redneck move.
